360 magnum vs 5.7 hemi

Hi guys ! i wanted to give my point here !


im 23 years old and i dont understand why im pissed off like that ! im a huge fan of old mopars and i dont like the new technologie to take place .. now we see the new hemi taking out all the legendary engines , even dodge on there new site are talking about the 5,7 hemi better than the old 426 hemi cause it as one hp per cubic inch , im a verry big fan about the 360 magnum crate engine , you put the 340 valve covers , you stroke it or tune it up a little bit and you have a nice ( LA ) engine on your mopar , i dont accept that the new hemi is taking the place of the 318-340-360 smallblocks in the mopar hardcore fans , and even bashing the reputation of the 426 hemi , i drove one (5,7 hemi ) , and gees it seem like a computer is pulling me , not brutal performance like the old ones ..

i live in montreal canada , and there a lot of rams , chargers , and magnum or challengers ,having the 4 letters on there panels or hoods and its like hey .... hey i have a hemi ,and you ( me )... you got nothing ..

im not 75 years old but when i went to carlisle in 2002 ... i would never forget the feeling to see a REAL hemi car , or the engine in front of me .. you know the trill the chills that you add ,,, what do you have now .. yes it got a Hemi its like ?? WHAT !! you cannot take that name .. take vortech if you want or everything but dont take all the history of the legendary hemi head ..


is it me or these engine are too much overated ! at first i found that i was cool the new hemi .. in 2004 for example .. but now man come on its too much i think ! even indy made a stroker kit to make it a 426 , man come on .. its as the power and everyhting ,, but ...

im a big mopar or no car , but the new hemi , no , not for me .. if i want a hemi its gonna be the old one , and not showing off with the new one ..


my 2 cents .. im maybe crazy , but still i know my mopar !
